Cotton head

Wandered around feeling half here; not sure how we got everything routine accomplished, but it was managed. Sad news about the guy overdue on his hike; his body was found up in the Glacier Peak Wilderness area. It sounds as if he may have gone up on a bit of a scramble, and lost his footing. It's always a shock when a fairly young person, in this case, 42, perishes in such a situation. He seemed to be an intelligent good-hearted fellow, and we don't need to lose any more of those in these increasingly foul times.

Yes, and ironically, he was on a hike, not some big ice-covered ascent.
